Social forces dormant in people can be used in the method of empowerment. This method allows to release social forces and change the functioning of a person and social groups. This article, based on a case study, will present the strength of women from the Hmong ethnic group living in northern Vietnam. The author describes how social forces dormant in one woman can rouse to action other women from the local community and become a drive wheel to financial liberation, thereby improving the quality of ethnic minority life.
